"JeoparScore" App
Anyone seen this? I have it on my iPad, and my guess is there's an Android version, too.
It's called JeoparScore, and it's been out for the iPad since early 2012. (best thing; it's FREE)
It allows you to easily keep your score as you play along with J! (or J! Archives), and it's easy to keep your Coryat score, too...
I rarely bothered doing Coryat with paper/pencil, but it's really, really easy to do with this app.
I played tonight's game and got a 26,400... Much better than the handful of games I've done off the Archive with this thingy since I installed
it last weekend, but probably won't be typical of my results...

Re: "JeoparScore" App
I have used that one - it is free and takes up a tiny amount of memory on the phone (28kB). It is perfect for a quick Coryat calculation if I can't find a piece of paper nearby.econgator wrote:Looks like the Android equivalent is called Jeopardy! Calculator.Rackme32 wrote:Anyone seen this?

Oh, I could have done with that! I made printed Coryat sheets and used those... oh well, too late now

Re: "JeoparScore" App
It doesn't keep track of what questions you got right/wrong (*really* good for determining strengths/weaknesses), or save scores, or compare your scores from the previous airing of the episode if you watched a repeat from last season. All good things to do (which I keep track of in my Excel files). But for fun playing along at home, and down-and-dirty final Coryat totals, sure!ThreeIfByAir wrote:Oh, I could have done with that!

Re: "JeoparScore" App
Yeah, I tried using it tonight. OK. I think there might be a niche market for a pro one that lets you input categories, mark your right/wrong on a board, etc. I'll stick to the Excel/Hand Written sheets.

I just started using it last night for pure fun, playing against my wife. Really fun and easy, thanks for the heads-up!

I tried theJeopardy! Calculator Android app and another one called Jeopardy Scorer. Jeopardy Scorer was more enjoyable to use and more functional.

Happy to help! I'd like to see an app for Android that will save games and also record which clues were clams, negs, and correct responses.Paucle wrote:that suits me fine! thank you so much!

Re: "JeoparScore" App
Actually, what I'd really like to see is an app that really compares my scores and judges how I've done over time. I record my right/wrongs as well as total Coryats, which are all helpful when I watch a repeat show because then I can see how I've done better, but now I'm starting to have seen the same episode 3 tiems (my old way of recording was useful for only having seen an episode twice). Plus, I'd like to see actual stats for categories and topics, to help me prepare for The Test in a few months.

Re: "JeoparScore" App
Nomad1: Checked out your app and liked it. Were you just scraping the JArchive site live for your data or have your pulled down all the data to a DB and are running queries against it? Any plans to add more features to the app such as what dhkendall is talking about, or maybe a full-featured browser for the JArchive site for those who don't want random questions?
dhkendall: Does JArchive store the clues with associations with topics? Are those well defined in some way? Associating performance with categories would be easy enough...
I'm thinking about putting together an app frontend for JArchive, but want to make sure I'm not reinventing the wheel. Thoughts?

Re: "JeoparScore" App
FWIW, the "Jeopardy Scorer" app has just been updated. Now it remembers your high score, and a vertical orientation is coming soon. Not exactly the changes I wanted, but maybe it's a good sign.

Re: "JeoparScore" App
have been using Jeoparscore for regular daily shows, plus the reruns shown in the afternoon. I'm averaging around $40,000 per game. I DONT do any doubles, simply treating it as a regular question.

Re: "JeoparScore" App
Sadly, the app that Nomad1 posted no longer works (at least, not in the US version of the Apple App Store). I really wish there was a way to test myself against the J-Archive on the go with an app! Still paging Roger Craig!

Re: "JeoparScore" App
I know this thread has been quiet for a while, but I'm the JeoparScore developer and I've recently revamped the app. It now tracks all scores over time. I'm thinking about two different expansions, but I'm not really not sure they're worth it. The first was mentioned, tracking categories to determine strengths and weaknesses, and developing a clue database from old shows so you can directly compete on a question by question basis with historical competitors, seeing them at the podium. If the rewritten JeoparScore I've made gets traction on the app store and on social media (Facebook/Twitter) then maybe I'll explore these expansions more fully. Thoughts?
